Phone +61 8 8303 4712, Fax +61 8 8223 1460, [email protected] Abstract Numerous barriers to international trade in goods, in some services, and in capital flows have been reduced considerably over the past three decades. Even so, many remain. Such policies harm most the economies imposing them, but the worst of the merchandise barriers (in agriculture and textiles) are particularly harmful to the world’s poorest people. This paper focuses on how costly those anti-poor trade policies are, and examines possible strategies to reduce remaining distortions. The opportunities addressed include completing the stalled Doha Development Agenda process at the World Trade Organization (WTO), and three different ways of freeing up trade in the biggest part of the world economy not yet covered by a comprehensive regional integration agreement, namely the Asia-Pacific region.

  • Conference Program
    Goal, Background and Program Overview 1 Goal The goal of the conference is to promote the exchange of ideas among economists conducting quanti- tative analyses of global economic issues. Particular emphasis is placed on applied general equilib- rium methods, data, applications and related theoretical and applied work. The Eighth Annual Confer- ence on Global Economic Analysis emphasizes research and policy analysis related to international trade and poverty, environment and demographics. Background A global network of individuals and institutions conducting economy-wide analyses of trade, resource, and environmental policy issues has emerged. More than three thousand academic and public sector economists now use a common data base, supplied by the Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP). The project is coordinated by the Center for Global Trade Analysis at Purdue University with the support of a consortium consisting of 23 national and international agencies. This annual conference has grown out of the desire of these individuals to interact with one another and with policy makers. Program Overview The conference includes plenary, contributed and organized sessions. Three plenary morning ses- sions reflect the overall themes of the conference: International Trade and Poverty, Environment and Demographics. A brief biographical sketch of the plenary speakers is incorporated in this program. The plenary speakers are intellectual leaders in their respective fields. Their presentations are de- signed to introduce participants to new topics as well as providing fresh insights into familiar topics. Another highlight of the conference are the organized sessions. The conference committee was able to obtain commitments from eight outstanding groups of researchers who arranged for special organ- ized sessions in new areas of research.

Trade protectionism in Australia: its growth and dismantling Kym Anderson* Abstract Protection from import competition was a defining feature of the birth of the Australian federation in 1901. For the next 70 years, the extent of protection grew, and broadened from mainly tariffs to also involving import licencing after World War II. There was a one-off 25% across-the-board cut in tariffs in 1973 and some dismantling of agricultural subsidies, but that was followed by the re-imposition of import quotas for the most-protected manufactured goods. Then a new reformist government began, in the mid-1980s, a long process of dismantling all protection as part of an overall economic reform program that also involved de-regulation, privatization and moving to a flexible exchange rate.
